How does this conflict with the Central Dogma?
- boomchinolo78 2y agoThe direction of information flow
- pfdietz 2y agoNo? The Central Dogma is about the flow of sequence information: from nucleic acid to protein, and never back again. It's not about regulatory information.
- boomchinolo78 2y agoThe direction of genetic information flow. And yes, multiple cases of the Dogma not working that way. That's why it is, literally, "dogma"
- dekhn 2y agoIt doesn't; the central dogma was always intended as a jokey simplification of real biology. It was never proscriptive.
